' DESK AND SEAT.

Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed March 29, 1906. Serial No. 308,666-

Patented. Nov. 6, 1906.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, EDWARD H. CLAUDY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Zanesville, in the county of Muskingum and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Desk and Seat, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in desks and seats in which the bod of the desk and also the seat are adjusta le; and the objects of my invention are, first, to pro duce facilities for adjusting the body of the desk to higher and lower positions; second, for adjusting the seat to higher and lower positions; third, for adjusting the seat to positions nearer and farther from its desk, and, fourth, for fiXin to the floor the desk and a seat by means asingle main standard having a single foot. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view in elevation, showing my invention in position for use; Fig.2, a view in detail of the adjustable desk-bearing branch of the standard and the channel of the main standard, in which it is adjustable. Fig. 3 is a view in detail of the adjustable seat-bearing branch of the standard and the channel of the main standard, in which it is adjustable; Fig. 4, an inverted view in detail of the adjustable seat-bearing plate.

Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

Foot 1, elongated in the direction of the seat, and standard 2 are the common supports of both the body 3 of the desk and of the seat 4. 5 is the desk-supporting branch, and 6 is the seat-supporting branch, of standard 2, to which they, respectively, are adjustably attached. 7 is the adjustable seatbearing plate.

Standard 2 is provided with channel 8, having ribs 9 9 of the same depth of ribs '10 10 of desk-supporting branch 5, which is provided with bolt-holes 11 12 to receive bolt 13, which is adjustable in slot 14 of standard 2, said ribs 9 9 acting as supports to the web around bolt-holes 11 12 when the nut is tightly turned down. When bolt 13 is in bolt-hole 11 and at the bottom of slot 14, the desk can be adjusted to lower positions by using bolt-hole 12, and when in bolt-hole 12 and at the top of slot 14 the desk can be adjusted to a higher position by using.bolthole 11. Standard 2 is also provided with channel 15, having shoulders 16 16 adapted laterally to support seat-supporting branch 6 when bolted to standard 2 with bolt 17 through slot 18, which adapts said seat to be adjusted to any desired level.

Seatlate 7 is adjustable by means of bolt 19 in slot 20, and said plate is laterally supported by shoulders 21 21 in combination with flattened upper end 22 of seat-supporting branch 6.

I claim A desk and seat, having a single supporting-standard, channeled on two opposite faces, and having a slot through the wall common to both channels, said slot being horizontally divided into two slots, in combination with a desk-bearing branch standard having an upper and a lower bolt-hole adapt ed to receive a bolt and to be adjusted in said upper slot, to higher and lower positions; and in combination with a seat-bearing branch standard adapted to be adjusted in said lower slot, to higher and lower positions, substantially as described.

, In witness whereofI hereunto subscribe my name this 24th day of March, A. D.-1906.

I EDWARD H. CLAUDY.
